Has anyone ever tried an Enzymatich Therapy Whole Body Cleanse? I saw it on the Swanson Vitamins website. It's supposedly not a harsh laxative, but for overall health. I know it contains psyllium.
I'm thinking of trying it. Any suggestions?

Please don't ask the same question more than once! Psyllium is a major trigger for IBS and I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

I thought Psyllium was in Metamusal and just a form a SF? Am I confusing it with something else? Or does Metamusal contain SF AND Psyllium, which is the problem some people have with it?
BTW, LAGuy,if you just reply to your own message with "bump -nt" in the subject line, then your post will be bumped to the top of the post where more people see it. This is less confusing for the rest of us than posting something twice.

Psyllium IS a SFS...but it's the harshest one around and will cause gas and bloating all on it's own! So some C's take it (usually at night to avoid the bloating), but for some of us, it might as well be IF.

I see this product advertised in HFS magazines all the time. This is a good, reputable company. I am really considering doing this as well. Someone told me that you should first do liver, then colon, the whole body cleanse in that order?
I don't see why you couldn't just do the whole cleanse if the directions don't require the other two first.
I really cannot say if this cleanse is recommended for people with IBS issues though. I've read mixed opinions in books written by people who specialize in digestive problems.
Any experts out there have an opinion? This is not a colon hydrotherapy cleanse, but a supplement cleanse, so might be okay?
